Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism Expands 'Visiting Copyright Education' Program
Increase the 'Copyright Experience Classroom' as well
Targeting 300,000 Youth This Year
The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Copyright Commission will expand the operation of the ‘Visiting Copyright Education’ and ‘Copyright Experience Classroom’ programs starting from the 27th. This year, they plan to raise copyright awareness among approximately 300,000 youths.
These programs have been ongoing since 2006. The former involves copyright instructors from the Commission visiting elementary, middle, and high schools directly to provide copyright education. Last year, 268,993 students participated. This year, the goal is to exceed 290,000 students.
The latter supports teachers who have received training from the Commission to conduct copyright education themselves by providing operating expenses, teaching materials, and educational aids. This year, about 12,000 students from 350 classes will participate. A Commission official explained, “It is a practical opportunity to learn how copyright applies in everyday life,” adding, “We considered the number of classes and student ratios by the seventeen provinces and metropolitan cities to avoid concentrating the program in schools in the Seoul metropolitan area.”
In addition, the two organizations will hold events such as a youth copyright essay contest and ‘Challenge! Copyright Golden Bell’ to create enjoyable learning opportunities for students. The remote education content for youths provided through the ‘Copyright e-Learning Center’ will also be expanded from four courses to twelve courses.
